The Pagosa Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the Small Business Development Center (SBDC) and Chamber member engagement, is pleased to announce an upcoming educational class that we think will be of great use to our business community.
One-on-one QuickBooks consultation sessions will be held on August 17 from 10am to 3pm in the Chamber conference room.
These sessions are meant for intermediate users of QuickBooks, not novice or beginner users. If you have some experience with QuickBooks yet are experiencing a particular problem or problems with your setup, inventory, invoices, reporting or the like, this 45-minute free session is for you.
There will be four slots available on an appointment basis. These slots will be open to Chamber members first and a waiting list will be created for all non-Chamber members. Should the slots not be filled, then those on the waiting list will be contacted.
With only four slots available at this time, you won’t want to miss this opportunity. The sessions will be conducted with Nelly Burns, who is an accounting business owner, SBDC consultant and QuickBooks pro advisor and trainer.
This class will open up first to our members. If you are interested in scheduling a free session with Burns, go to www.sbdcfortlewis.org/consulting. Scroll down and select “Request an Initial Appointment” or “request Follow on Appointment” if you have worked with the SBDC before and then follow the prompts from there.
Burns can help you set up a better invoice or invoicing system, a better report to garner the information you need, a better inventory system or even set up job codes so that you can run and understand your financials better and you can streamline your accounting.
Should we get more than four sign-ups, we are looking to host another QuickBooks one-on-one consulting class on August 24. In addition, later in the year we are looking at two more possible QuickBooks classes. One class will be for novice QuickBooks users and another class identifying some of the pitfalls to avoid when converting from QuickBooks desktop to QuickBooks online.
Stay tuned for when these classes will be held.
